Cool choker necklace handmade with genuine Cowrie shells! We use real shells and strong hemp cord to make our necklaces. You choose the metal bead color between the shells, making this a great customized choker necklace! Our necklace easily and securely ties at the back of the neck with pretty shells tied on the ends that allow the necklace to be adjustable and comfortable to wear :)
You have the option at checkout to choose a Choker Necklace, Anklet, Bracelet or Set of all 3!
*** ---->>>>> completely adjustable so it makes a great Gift!
SIZE
The natural shells have pretty variations in size and color. We will hand select shells for your necklace that are similar in size and color. Our shells range in size from 1/2 inch to 1 inch in length. You can leave a note in the "Note to Seller" box if you have a preference for smaller or larger shells.
We make our necklaces with strong genuine hemp cord in dark brown. The cord is sturdy, but soft. The cord is easy to tie and stays in place all day!
We make the necklace so it can be tied as short as 11 inches (small neck) and are adjustable up to 20 inches.
The Anklets are made so they can be tied as small as 9 inches and are adjustable to 11 inches.
The Bracelets are made to be tied as small as 6 inches and are adjustable up to 8 inches.

G A U G E:
Gauge size refers to the wire thickness. 20 gauge is the thickness of an average earring post and 22 gauge is thinner. 18 gauge is slightly thicker.
> The higher the gauge number, the thinner the wire.
> Note: The thicker gauge in the smaller hoops are a bit more difficult to open and close.
D I A M E T E R (mm) S I Z E:
We measure our hoops by inside diameter. 3mm is tiny, 6mm is the size of the end of a new pencil eraser and 9mm is the size of an iPhone home button.
Since everyone's shape, size and piercing distance from the edge is so uniquely different, there's really no one-size-fits-all. Some like a snug fitting hoop while others prefer a loose fitting hoop. For this reason, our hoops are handmade just for you!
G O L D . F I L L E D:
Gold-filled jewelry is jewelry composed of a solid layer of gold mechanically bonded to a base of either sterling silver, brass or copper. High quality gold-filled pieces have the same appearance as high carat gold, and gold-filled items, even with daily wear, can last a lifetime.
The layer of gold on gold-filled items is 10 times thicker than that produced by regular gold plating, and 25 times thicker than that produced by gold electroplate. So, you can wear gold filled jewelry for a long time and it retains its pretty gold layer. If you are not sensitive to solid 14k Gold, then you should have no problem wearing Gold Filled jewelry.
S T E R L I N G . S I L V E R:
Pure silver is too soft to use in jewelry making, so 92.5% of pure silver is mixed with 7.5% of other metals to make the metal hard. Copper is most often used in this process and both copper & silver are nickel free.
With Sterling Silver the tarnish process is normal, expected and with some people it can occur relatively quickly. The good news is that Sterling Silver is easy to clean! Most often you can buff the hoop with a cotton or flannel cloth. Itâs also easy to find a Silver polishing cloth at a drugstore or grocery store. Sulfur in the air, water, shampoo, fragrance, medication, etc can cause tarnish. Many people never experience it, but if you do, it's easy to make Sterling look new again!
I N S E R T I N G . H O O P S:
Clean your hands, hoop and piercing before starting. Itâs always wise to avoid leaning over a sink, but if this is your best light and mirror, lay down a towel to avoid a hoop falling down a drain đ
Gently âtwistâ the hoop open (donât pull the ends apart). Insert one end into the piercing (sometimes it can be easier inserting from the back side of the piercing).
Once the hoop is inserted in your piercing, please be sure you gently twist the hoop so the ends meet and line up perfectly for a comfortable fit. You may need to gently push and pull the ends past each other to get the ends lined up perfectly. Once closed, the hoop should turn easily within the piercing with no discomfort.

My husband thinks our Chihuahua/Miniature Pinscher mix is kind of a âdudeâ so I ordered this as a collar for him. His neck measures 10â. I went with the anklet that expands to 11â and itâs a perfect fit for Frankie. Shipping was quick, too. Very happy with this purchase. The silver beads are *chefâs kiss
